Usage examples of "dimensive".
If, then, the dimensive quantity of the bread or wine remains individuated according to the being it had before, in which it is preserved, for like reason the other accidents remain individuated according to the existence which they had before in the substance.
It does not seem, then, that dimensive quantity can be the subject of the accidents which remain in this sacrament.
Since, then, the remaining accidents in this sacrament are sensible, it seems that in this sacrament they cannot be subjected in the dimensive quantity of the bread and wine that remains after consecration.
Therefore, dimensive quantity is the subject of the accidents which remain in this sacrament.
And since, when the subject is withdrawn, the accidents remain according to the being which they had before, it follows that all accidents remain founded upon dimensive quantity.
The other accidents, even as they were in the substance of the bread, were individuated by means of dimensive quantity, as stated above.
And therefore dimensive quantity is the subject of the other accidents remaining in this sacrament, rather than conversely.
